I'm trying to print out the stores contact information in footer.tpl with <?php echo $store; ?> and <?php echo $address; ?> but the code doesn't print it out. Why? Do I need to declare a varible for the footer template file? Because I've just copied the code from the contact.tpl file where it works great.

I'm using version 1.4.9.3 of OC.

I'm using OpenCart 1.5.1.3

Any variables you use in a template file need to be defined in the corresponding controller.

If you want to use <?php echo $store; ?> and <?php echo $address; ?> in the footer template file, they need to be defined in "catalog/controller/common/footer.php".

Code: Select all

$this->data['store'] = $this->config->get('config_name');
$this->data['address'] = nl2br($this->config->get('config_address'));

Fantabulous explanation, cheers ;o)
I have implemented this in a vqmod 'Show store address in footer' see attachment.
Have fun :)

..one more thing you need to add an address echo in your footer like this:
<?php echo $address; ?>

This works in version 1.5.6
